Exploring Women's Experiences of Information Across Their Endometrial Cancer Diagnosis and Treatment: A Qualitative Analysis.
Article in Psycho-oncology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundAccess to timely and appropriate information is a key component of quality cancer care.
aimsThis study aimed to fill an important gap regarding the information experiences of women with endometrial cancer from diagnosis to treatment.
methodsThis study is based on 24 interviews with women diagnosed with endometrial cancer in Queensland, Australia in 2022-2023. Reflexive thematic analysis was used to provide an in-depth exploration of women's accounts of information across their diagnosis and treatment journeys.
resultsThe researchers identified three implicit and socially constructed assumptions women negotiated when it came to information. These included: (1) the physical body is of central importance; (2) more information is better; and (3) medical knowledge is most credible. These assumptions were not always upheld or accepted; at times, they were rejected by women and ultimately shaped how women made sense of, and spoke about, their experiences of information.
conclusionsTogether, these findings point to the need for women to be supported to engage with contextually sensitive information regarding their cancer. In particular, health professionals should be actively involved in ensuring women understand their cancer (including treatment side-effects and risk of recurrence), are supported with psycho-social impacts, and that alternative and holistic sources of information are acknowledged alongside medical information. These findings point to the need for health professionals to reflect on their own communication practices and how they may reinforce assumptions that shape women's experiences of endometrial cancer.
